Imagine driving a car which has no breaks. Rather it is impossible to even imagine. Feel the importance of breaks while driving a car. Breaks can help you avoid accidents. Breaks can help you stop wherever you want to, take the turn of your choice and also to rebuild your speed to reach your destination.
Breaks increase productivity and creativity. Working for long stretches without breaks leads to stress and exhaustion. Taking a break rejuvenates the energy of your mind, and helps you become more creative. Unfortunately, a lot of people tend to ignore the necessity of taking a break because they feel like there’s so much to achieve and that a break would just be a distraction.
Taking a break in a relationship doesn’t mean ending it. Like what it says, it’s a break only. A break that helps you and your partner have room for reflecting your thoughts and emotions; and for thinking about your future with or without your current partner.
Taking a career break can seem daunting at first, but it could be one of the best decisions you ever make. Career-wise, a break could help you to up-skill, find motivation, or even set you off on a whole new path. And you may be surprised to discover that career breaks are actually encouraged by some employers.
How do you know you need a break? Changes in your eating habits can be a good indicator of when you need to take a break. In some cases, you might notice yourself eating less than usual or skipping meals without realizing it. Or you might find that you’re eating more than usual and always on the hunt for a snack, even if you are not hungry.
